Sunday Prayers

After last week's post on the prayers of the Bible, I received several comments from friends and family about how it touched them. I decided to make Sunday a day to post prayers direct from scripture. Listen to Jesus' prayer for his followers from Luke 17: 15-19:

"My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified."

As you head to church today and study God's word during the week, may you be sanctified by truth. Amen.
